Owns nothing. Not a damned thing.
Jinx was angry. She was going to bring pain and suffering to whomever it was that had pulled the prank. And she was sure it had to be a fellow ninja. Who else could have pulled it off?
She didn't know why, and she wasn't even sure that she was the intended target, but someone was going to pay. They had ruined a perfectly good civilian outfit, a good date with Budo, and had just caught her on a bad day to begin with.
As she stalked down the hallway to her quarters, she crossed paths with Kamakura.
"Hello Jinx. Um, what happened?" The question was nothing but innocent. But Jinx was too furious to care.
"What happened? Oh, really? Like you have no idea how I suddenly got drenched with marshmallow and chocolate sauce?" Her voice was low. Deadly. Kamakura stepped back instinctively. That seemed to anger Jinx more. "You really think I don't know who did this?"
Kamakura was actually afraid of his fellow apprentice. "Jinx. I really don't know what happened to you. But I think I need to go now. Hawk wanted me in his office. Excuse me." He quickly moved down the hallway, and out of Jinx's range.
She continued her way to her room. Marshmallow and chocolate dripped from her hair and clothes. Deciding to just throw away the clothes, she tried to figure out the best way to get the goo off. Then she wanted to figure out who it was.
After finally getting into the shower, Jinx turned the water to hot and let it melt the sauces off. As she soaked in the water spray, she thought back to the afternoon. Trying to remember anything that would have been a tip off. She had gone through the normal day at The Pit. PT with Beach Head. Training with Storm Shadow, Snake Eyes, and Kamakura. Some down time before she got ready for her date.
PT had been especially grueling to start the day. The rain the day before had left the field extra muddy. The mud pits had been deeper than normal. And she was sure the ropes had been slipperier too. Like someone had poured oil them.
Training with the others in the dojo started out normal. Then Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow had gone to one side and had their own sparring match. Which was nothing out of the ordinary. The two were deeply engaged in their match when several Joes came in to watch. For some reason that bothered Jinx more than normal. She was trying to train with Kamakura when the crowd was only getting in the way, she had felt. But nothing extraordinary had happened beyond that.
She had gotten a shower, and dressed in her civilian clothes. She was going to meet Budo at the vehicles for their date. There had been a rather suspicious little group of greenies there, but she hadn't really paid them any attention at the time. After all, they were part of team. And groups often gathered to hang out and chat in odd places. And then it happened. As she approached Budo for some overdue time together, a garbage pail of chocolate and marshmallow sauce fell on her head. Right in front of everyone that was there.
That had brought her to her present place. Finally feeling clean, Jinx got dressed and though hard about what had happened. And who could have done it. She was thinking hard about the group of Green shirts. She couldn't think that she had done anything to deserve the prank. But she would make them all pay if it was them.
